Brass Musician – Training Shoot

McFade Training’s Brass Night at the Lyric

April’s taster session saw delegates return to the amazing venue that is the Lyric Cinema. This month we ventured away from the main auditorium into the more abandoned looking areas around the projector rooms – the prefect backdrop.

Chris Colbran and Sam Houghton were the subjects this time, both professional musicians working in many bands in Yorkshire and beyond, so as well as looking very cool for the photos, they both entertained by playing their trombone and sax.

We shot with both bare flash and soft light, to show the difference in lighting you get from these sources. Also added in a second light to many setups to demonstrate how a back light can completely transform a shot.

Here’s a slideshow from the evening – photographs from Mark Searle, Phil Gledhill, Dave Goodman and Ade Wilson – click on the show to advance through the photos.
